What sort of things did you notice in her interviews? Just curious.  |

| What.is.wrong.with.me. What is wrong with me? No, I am not depressed because of abuse or neglect or genetic predisposition. I am depressed because of people. There is nothing wrong with people, it is all me. Why would I have a friend? It is up to her to stay or leave. I have no say. I don't have the... |

| Dear me, Compared to one year ago, you are doing so much better. I am sorry about what you had to go through. One thing that can be sure is that I love you. I care about your future so I make sure you go to all of the doctor's appointments. I make sure you have some sort of coping strategies if thin... |

| Dear you, You are my first real friend but I am scared all the time that this wouldn't last. From looking at how you interact with others, I feel like I cannot provide the same back and forth exchange. My moods are too dark sometimes. I have been selfish, I have really low self worth. I don't know h... |

I thought I had my depression under control but it takes so little to remind me that it is still lurking around the corner. It is so hard to communicate sometimes. I keep misunderstanding people. Feeling so isolated. |

| I don't think people dislike me. I do notice that in groups I am part of, initially people treat me the same as everyone else, but very quickly - usually before the end of the first meeting, they appear to form bonds with each other and not with me. And after a few meetings it's as if I am not part... |

| I am in the same situation as you are. I had far more autistic traits when i was a child. I outgrew many of them but i'm still terrible at some social aspects. Being in group conversations is the worst one for me, for whatever reason I'm barely able to say a thing when I'm in a group conversation, ... |

| Hi folks, I have been lurking on and off since perhaps 5 years ago. I am a 23-year-old female, grew up in a developing country. Years ago when I first discovered autism and Aspergers I was pretty shocked at how well some of the traits described me. Later on, however, I got carried away by all the th... |
